Текст песни The Banks of Marble (The Weavers) с переводом

I’ve traveled around this country

From shore to shining shore;

It really made me wonder

The things I heard and saw

I saw the weary farmer

Plowing his sod and loam;

I heard the auction hammer

Just a-knockin' down his home

But the banks are made of marble

With a guard at every door

And the vaults are stuffed with silver

That the farmer sweated for

I saw the weary miner

Scrubbin' coal dust from his back;

And I heard his children crying

«We've got no coal to heat the shack.»

But the banks are made of marble

With a guard at every door

And the vaults are stuffed with silver

That the miner sweated for

I saw the seaman standing

Idly by the shore;

And I heard the owner sayin'

«Got no work fer you no more.»

But the banks are made of marble

With a guard at every door

And the vaults are stuffed with silver

That the seaman sweated for

I see my brothers working

Throughout this mighty land

And I pray we’d get together

And together make a stand

Then we’d own those banks of marble

With a guard at every door

And we’d share those vaults of silver

That we have sweated for
